Can You Beat Payday 3 on Overkill Solo Loud?

Playing basically exclusively solo I've come to absolutely love the disengage skill in the tank tree, a free escape from a cloaker or tazer is extremely useful with these bots.

[@the_bagelrat7121]

I was about to comment that, disengage is a life saver when you have bots. I quite literally had a cloaker take me from full health to custody while 2 of my bots stood right next to me.

Wow thanks for mentioning 'disengage'! I am just starting out and planning to play Loud all the way!

[@dooderman8361]

Yea this was the core problem that caused all the major issues with the game: Starbreeze heavily marketed payday 3 as a coop game, they obviously knew some people would play it solo but they wrongly expected that almost all players were going to be playing with others because of the way they marketed the game. So they put little effort into the crew ai, which is extremely annoying. Not only that but the expectation that there wouldn’t be many solo players is likely what caused the servers to “not perform as expected” they literally did not anticipate how many solo players would play, and since each solo player takes up one lobby, the servers just couldn’t handle it. They hinged the success of the launch entirely on the assumption that there wouldn’t be many solo players, and ultimately that’s what screwed them and the community. It’s clear that that assumption wasn’t made by the devs, it was made by the moronic marketers and other suits completely disconnected from the community, evident by the fact that thousands of us were begging for an offline mode before the game even launched, showing that people want to play solo, but the devs couldn’t do anything about it because the marketing team crunched the numbers wrong. It’s tragic that the people the most out of touch with the community are the ones making the budgeting decisions at game companies, games could be so much better if these “businessmen” would learn that you have to understand the communities needs, not just the target audience of your game but the returning community from prior releases. Any competent employee would know that but it’s clear Starbreeze hired the most scummy and unqualified marketing team to exist. Shame

[@TheDehlome]

There's a reason why Overkill as a team doesn't really exist anymore, everyone involved in Payday The Heist is gone and Overkill only exists as a brand, I hate that Starbreeze sucked the life out of a talented team but I guess that's normal for the industry

[@firebolt2406]

As someone learning business currently in university, learning about what your communities is a basic principle that you learn in marketing courses. Not just target markets but learning about what your community wants to make the product better. How this keeps happening where business people become out of touch with the community (or were always out of touch) is beyond me. Especially for Payday games, the community has said time and time again what they like, it can't be that hard.

[@phalanx8437]

It's hilarious that they assumed such a notion when never in human history has there been such a pandemic of atomisation & asocial behaviour. The larger demographic that this game is going to be played by i.e 12-30 year old males are chronically socially disengaged and alone. The idea of them having this bustling social life & being able to crack open a few brewskis with the bros over PD3 at a moment's notice is fucking LAUGHABLE.

[@TheGreyShaman]

To be fair the crew AI in payday 2 was so OP you could cheese the higher difficulties. And while I would rather have that ease of access, I do get their perspective as it was a skill issue on my part. Now it’s my fault if I go down on higher difficulties and I can’t blame the AI anymore.

[@JAOResnik]

And the matchmaker sucks. You can't communicate with Randoms before the heist starts and you can't browse lobbies to join 🤡

[@Virtualsinner]

The fact that you can't revive your teammates (Ai and players) is probably the worst bug that makes this challenge as difficult as it is.

The fact when attempting to go stealth on Overkill, you can't lockpick doors without having to mask up. What the fuck was Starbreeze thinking on that?

[@jedthementalist5112]

3:34 This happened to me today. I flawlessly stealthed the level, mask off, in my loud build. The plan was to solo loud the final assault on overkill... really didn't want to drag the loot halfway across the map. Well, the bots all dropped (as expected) but I couldn't revive them, leaving me truly solo. I'll be sticking to Very Hard when going loud in the future.

[@darksavior1187]

I think a big part of the pain in very hard/overkill solo is that the ai crew are both limited and weak. They cannot be commanded, aid with objectives, and don't seem to have any scaling to go up with difficulty, so they turn into complete tissue paper on loud. The cops all also become sharpshooters, as you noted in Road Rage how they were picking you apart on a zipline. I also think the snipers on many missions might need some rebalancing (maybe removing a single chunk of armor per shot, instead of entirely removing armor per shot) and respawning a bit less frequently. I am fine with bulldozers, naders, cloakers, zappers, etc, they all seem fine, but with the limited commodity armor is, snipers taking all of it in a single shot, and being ever-present no matter how often you kill them and respawning pretty quickly it seems, I find them specifically to be overpowered personally.

[@darkwolf9637]

Snipers are definitely weaker in payday 3 than they were in 2, but it feels like they get replaced near instantly. It would also be nice to at least be able to tell the ai to move so they don't spend half the heist standing directly in front of your crosshair blocking your vision.

[@meat.]

The snipers are pathetic enough and people are still wanting them to be nerfed. I actually liked how strong they are in payday 2. It made you have to play more strategic

[@yeenderdragon2457]

[@knavenformed9436]

​@@MyUsersDarkOr they camp a corner and disable you in a second

[@metaforth]

I think the reason road rage has the invincibility zone is that there's probably areas that enemies are coded not to enter on their own to avoid pathings issues or to allow players some cover during objectives But given Cloakers are always hunting for that 1 shot, they ignore these pathing restrictions when searching for a hiding spot or charging. Just a theory though

[@doot7730]

It makes sense when you consider cloaker have entirely different pathfinding than other cops

[@dragonweavez5658]

Tip: if grenadiers are proving to be an issue then bring a civilian with you to your holdout spot. Grenadiers can't throw gas at you if there is a hostage with you. Also, shotgun swat will swap to their pistol as to avoid turning a civ into swiss cheese. Hostages are very powerful in this game.

[@insanityplea5502]

Dirty Ice is a great heist but I feel its a bit easy due to the spawn point being so heavy in the alleyway.

[@HenriPlayz]

The bug at 3:30 to 3:46 happend to me too, it seems to be a problem with the armor plates, as long as they are above 2 the bug never happens. This means it can be fixed by using the armor bag until you get to 3 or more active plates. Hope this helps anyone and also well done for soloing ovk, im still kinda struggleing there!

[@stine_one]

I really really love that you're keeping your gameplay footages fresh using different builds, that's honestly awesome! I myself can't stand playing same things over and over and change weapons in my builds almost every heist

[@scotttimbrell8632]

My main issue with Overkill, in teams or solo is the lack of any sort of chip damage negator, PD2 had refreshing shields that allowed you to take a shot every now and then to weird angles, surprise attacks or moving from cover to cover. Now it feels like any shot hitting you sucks and without armour you basically are as good as dead. It also doesnt help that the enemy AI spawn in clumps that all simultaneously shoot at once, leading to bursts of damage and not chips and bursts like what normal games have and whilst that makes it somewhat cool and realistic, its also incredibly annoying when a team spawns around you and blasts you, or if 2 teams at once push you and blast you. On Gold and sharke for example, the roofs were clear and I looked down for 1 second to pick up a bag and 2 groups instantly spawned and all shot me at once, 4 chunks of armour and hp instantly dead, it feels awful. Bugging the AI is the only true way of beating this game on overkill, its not really a challenge of difficulty, but challenge of cheese and time. I also think the lack of any decent skills, and the over reliance of grit is a stupid idea and needs to be reworked. I also think that the guns not being incredibly powerful and having bad ammo eco doesnt help either. (some weapons are good, sure, but thats like what? 2 out of the 8 we have)

[@Mixer181]

28:45 This is the cops we were waiting for, i think you glossed over how cool that was, they actually had a plan there: step 1: gas the vault 2: while the confusion of the gas, get into the vault 3: circle the vault and shoot the robbers from all possible sides. And it worked like a charm!

[@BloodReaperZ]

For 99 Boxes you can secure loot on the outside, you need to jump and throw the bag into the corner of the trucks back door, if done right the bag caps. Added bonus, after the second Tech bag you can close the truck on the right side looking through a gap of the map, allowing you to escape faster rather than go through and around the building.

[@zeldacrafter4578]

man, payday 3 is the first payday game I've played, I've known about payday for a long while but decided to not play any of the games until payday 3 launched because at the time of me deciding to play payday was a few months before, so I thought I'd save all of my excitement for payday 3 playing payday 3 for as my first payday game was a blast, I really enjoyed it, I ended up completing all the heists on normal mode solo first, pretty fun, and decided to do them on harder difficulties afterwards with nothing else to do as of now. I quickly learned how useless the ai was on higher difficulties fast forward a bit I decided to play payday 2 cause I wanted more new stuff to play today I've literally been spending multiple hours playing it, having a blast, and I've learned something crucial for payday 3 from this I've been doing solo missions offline with ai, and after a bit i tried doing higher difficulties with them all i've got to say is, why the actual hell did they make payday 3 bots so god awful? I've literally been able to do multiple very hard missions for my first day playing, and I feel like *I've* been weighing the freaking bots down I really hope they make payday 3 bots better

[@somethingeckzdee2649]

i've played solo the entire time so far in payday 3 and the thing that bothers me the most is that very hard is pitifully easy and overkill is just reset every run less than 5 minutes in because AI teammates just won't stop going down every few seconds

[@spurilly9782]

[@zqidx]

I have only completed Touch The Sky on Overkill with bots. It took me over 10 tries which isn't so bad but was still a nightmare -- This is a relatively easy map to play because it's mostly close quarters as well. I can only imagine how it turn out if I were to try maps like Road Rage. Overkill is an amazingly balanced difficulty with players. Your playstyle becomes more defensive where you stay behind cover most of the time and pick off enemies from afar and close by. Personally, I would say that PAYDAY 3 maps are very well-thought and strategically designed. In fact, the maps are quite beautiful, mechanically and technically. The maps are 99% never the issue, it is actually the bots. The only issue that I have playing solo with bots is that the bots are so damn brain dead. They are very fragile and do not help with anything other than carry loot/drill parts, help with firepower, even then they are horrendous at it. They also die as soon as dozers get an inch close to where we are holding out. Overkill is forgiving yet punishing, which is a good thing. Like Expert difficulty in Left 4 Dead 2. This gives a fair amount of excitement and tension to the game. I am wishing to play Overkill loud full-time, like how I did play Death Sentence full-time in PAYDAY 2.

It may have been one of your past videos, but I remember making comments about wanting to see "bag weight" worked into PD3. Something like light, medium, and heavy loot in PD2. Say you have 1 total carry weight. Light bags are 33%, medium bags are 50%, and large bags are 100%. If you're carrying three paintings, you should be encumbered as if you were carrying one gold bag. And if you carry two money bags, that should equal one gold bag. The proposed "Transporter" perk tree makes me wonder how they will expand upon the "loot extraction" gameplay.

[@CJ-of6wo]

19:12 I acknowledge the FIK isnt the greatest gun in the game but it is by far my favorite. it wont be 1-tapping any cops but it is bullet hose incarnate and has respectable damage relative to its ammo pickup-- this makes it exceptionally good at crowd control if you can build for reload speed and the heavy stagger skills to keep cops from shooting you and having constant uptime on pressure. Additionally it is also one of the most handleable guns in the game, having smooth as butter recoil and gunkick stats, good swap speed, and reload speed, making it a very comfortable weapon to use without sacrificing a lot of damage. If only the Uzi was half as good. i wish they made it a secondary weapon, it has the one handed bash animation and everything

[@Aura-iw7ml]

Guessing retirement the payday gang went through made the bots extremely soft and squishy

[@Zarfus]

I Used to be a pretty active DS player on pd2. But the modern warfare style armor plate system leading to complete weardown of resources has kind of completely turned me away from being a solo overkill player on pd3.

One thing that I've discovered while trying this is that you can abuse the "go invincible for 5 seconds after reviving someone" perk by abusing the fact that bots go down all the time. If all 3 bots go down, you can pick one up, do whatever you want for the 4~ seconds of invincibility, spend the last second to revive the next bot, then do whatever you want for 4 seconds, then revive the last one, then, if you get lucky, the first bot will go down again, and you can do this loop all over again. It's not very reliable, but very fun to pull off, and can be very useful if bots go down in convenient spots. If a bot goes down right next to the place where you're camping, it's practically just 5 seconds of invincibility on demand.

9:07 "proper threat" is not how I would discribe the new cloakers. The old ones hurt more to be hit by, so the fact that these new guys can scratch more often just makes them annoying, and not an actual threat.

[@owenmcdonough7720]

i really don't like how cloakers come out of complete nowhere with little warning. in PD2, you have to come to they whether you realise it or not so you're not knocked down randomly. in PD3 they just down you without giving you a chance

[@meat.]

I prefer the cloakers in pd2 because you could react to them but they ACTUALLY took all your health from what I remember. In payday 3 they are more of an annoyance than a threat

[@WaltzWick27]

​@@Unknown_GeniusPerhaps so, but there seems to be an issue where PD3 cloakers can on occasion just turn off their running sound, giving the issue to not even knowing a cloaker was attacking. While yes some things of pd3 is nice with the cloaker, I wished they did atleast fixed that or added the solo attacks being disabled

[@absolution6191]

Cloakers need a rework for the fact that they instantly down you even if you're on your own. At least with the tazers, you can fight back.

[@absolution6191]

@@Unknown_Genius You can in payday 2, they completely need to rework tazers also.

[@absolution6191]

@thanos_dawn9189 payday the heist never used the instakill enemies unless you had another teammate with you. Tazers acted as cloakers when you're doing a run solo. You could shoot at them, but they would violently shake your screen making them hard to hit him. They kept the same formula for pd2, and yes, tazers were a threat as they kept you out in the open to get shot at. This also gave players a reason to run without ai. I find it bullshit that cloakers can instakill you if you're by yourself. Also, cloakers were of a threat because they hid in certain areas where players couldn't find them, (e.g vents), instead of running at them.

[@Poli-uu6zh]

I beat every hiest solo overkill and my main recommendation The best build in my opinion Is to run Last man standing Medic bag with basic bag perks And hostage perks especially menace This allows you to get up to 6 minutes of immortality each hiest Huge for solo Even better multiplayer

[@johnnyliotta3200]

I’m from the future, Starbreeze never fixes anything and abandoned the game completely in approximately 1 week

[@yaboiluke8608]

solo loud ovk is crazy difficult in payday 3, im like third of the way through by now and man its tough, i wish the bots were better Best of luck in your run

[@El_rey571]

I think that it would be interesting to try the hiests in overkill for each challenge and then judge from there

[@TretrebuchPlay]

"- Play Solo, Offline, with Crew AI." ... and you failed! You never had a chance.

[@D3m0nG4m3r]

seems like the end of the second level for you is like ggc stealth for me i ended up falling down the elevator after over an hour of gameplay

[@madmonty4761]

Hot take but i wish the shotguns crosshair looked like a shotgun crosshair because it has no spread
